With all time-lines in dates, there has seem to be no actual written date to when dimensions came to someones idea or theory. Some texts go from early 19th and 20th century to all the way back in the 11th century. Most are not sure when the actual time of this theory came to existence.[1]
The 0 Dimension
The Zero Dimension is the point, the infinitely small place holder. It exists not in space, but in time only. It is the moment between past and future, the subject, zero. It constitutes potentiality, the four space dimensions constitute actuality. The Zero Dimension is the home of Natural Numbers. The subject point, the moment, is Zero, pure Awareness. Its numbers are the natural numerals.[2]

The 1 Dimension
The First Dimension is the dimension of 1-D shape, which is like a line. It starts with a point, it is an imaginary idea in a position. It has no size and actually no dimension. If you create another point, and make a line between the two points you have an object in the first dimension. It only has length, no width or depth. The First Dimension is the LINE. It contains an infinite number of points. Temporally, it represents the Future. The moments of Zero Dimension create the future, forming a trajectory. The first dimension is the home of the Whole or Integer numbers. The points, natural numbers, have no extension. Integer numbers unite positive and negative up to ten and create the number line.[3]
The 2 Dimension
he Second Dimension is the dimension of 2-D shapes, like a split. If you take a line, like in the first dimension, and create another line branching off of it which now gives it width, this is now the second dimension. Things that exist in this dimensions are called flatlanders. Like a drawing or a face on a card, these objects can only “live” in their two dimensional world. If you took a piece of paper and started putting your finger to it, the 2-D flatlander would only see a circle that gets more in size the closer it gets. If an object from a higher dimension came into the two dimensional world they would appear as a point grow into their two dimensional shape and form back into a point before popping out of existence. The Second Dimension is the PLANE, such as a square. It contains an infinite number of straight lines. In Time, the Second Dimension represents the Present. The trajectory of moments in the First Dimension (Future) appears like a disk or revolution. In the second dimension we have the Rational numbers, based on three points, visualized on the plane with a vertical and horizontal axis. The number plane was known to the Pythagoreans.[4]
The 3 Dimension
The Third Dimension is the dimension of 3-D shapes, such like us. The third dimension has length, width and depth. The third dimension lets you fold through from one point to another. Like a 2 dimensional object, but you are from one point, then to a different point in an instant, or to the perspective it is. you really are just “folding” the 2 dimensional surface for an object to move. The Third Dimension is the SOLID, such as a cube. It contains an infinite number of planes or squares. Temporally, the Third Dimension represent the Past. The disc of the Second Dimension (Present) turns one half time around its axis and fills out the sphere of the past. The third dimension brings out the Real numbers. Real numbers start from zero and connect fractions of the same numerical value, leading to the proportions and functions.[5]
The 4 Dimension
The Fourth Dimension is the dimension of length, width, depth, and space-time. Some are still not sure if this is the fourth dimension, but we do know there is something else that fills in the fourth dimensional area to BE the fourth dimension. In the third dimension, we have the limitations of up/down, left/right, and forwards/backwards. In the fourth dimension, the directions of ana/kata are added. (Note: these are attested terms.) They cannot be taken formally. The easiest shape to visualize this dimension is the hypercube. The hypercube is also known as a tesseract, a hypercube is a figure used to describe the space in other dimensions. The hyperspace in the fourth dimension is impossible to describe due to the limitations of our own dimensions. The fourth dimension can only be understood as an abstract. Notice how you are a 3 dimensional object and when the sun is out is leaves a 2 dimensional shadow below you. If there is a 4 dimensional object and light hits the object, the shadow below it is actually in the 3 dimension. The Fourth Dimension, space-time continuum, is reality. In the fourth dimension the infinite number of solids in the Universe are in relationship with each other through time and energy. In the Time domain, the Fourth Dimension continues the movement of the Third Dimension (Past) to form a wave, constituting fractally the space-time continuum. THE HYPERCUBE The Fourth Dimension is portrayed geometrically by fractals and by the Hypercube. The Hypercube is the symbol used in mathematics to try and represent the fourth dimension in two dimensions. From the center of the Hypercube through its 8 diagonals the Hypercube is related to everything in the Universe. The infinity in the Fourth Dimension lies in the infinity of relations. This can be expressed in terms of "fractal scaling", from the infinite small to the infinite big, perpendicular to the other dimensions and including the intervals or fractal dimensions between them. It is sufficient to understand this as scales of magnitude, as for instance from the size of the atom to the size of a galaxy. The Hypercube is cut by 4 diagonals constituting the central point. In consciousness this center point represents the identity or the Self.[6][7][8][9]
